To the Greenwich Time editor:
Cupcakegate.
I have never read anything so ridiculous as the lead story on cupcakes in Glenville School ("Cupcakes center of dispute," Greenwich Time, May 30). Glenville School has more important problems facing it.
If I were that principal, I would run to the nearest exit and find a position in a town that has adults on the Board of Education instead of people who are worried whether a father can or cannot deliver cupcakes to his little darling's classroom. And I am sorry for parent Frank Carbino if he believes his reputation is on the line because of not being able to deliver those cupcakes. I am embarrassed for him having his name in the newspaper for something so petty.
What kind of message are we sending to our children? How are they going to make it in this dog-eat-dog world when Daddy and Mommy can't take no for an answer.
My children are fully grown, and I know they would have been mortified if we did something like that. And what this nonsense is costing - between the superintendent meeting with the principal, lawyers being involved, district officials getting in on the act - a truckload of cupcakes could have been purchased.
Stop the practice of parties in the classroom; kids have allergies and should not have homemade goodies brought to them. And the kids get enough parties at home.

It Looks like poor Dorothy decided
to read only the headlines and not
the facts of the case surrounding
Principal Marc D'Amico's suspension.
Principal D'Amico's own lawyer has admitted to
the unethical principal's wrong doing.
Dorothy, Principal D"amico did lie to his superiors and changed a public document after the fact.
The ethically challenged Principal D'Amico even lied to his boss about manipulating the public document after the fact.
Dorothy if this same scenario happened at your place of work and you lied to your boss about a client and then changed a document to prove your point you'd probably be fired.
Dorothy, why can't you see that whatever happened with the cups of ice cream has nothing to do why Principal D'Amico was suspended.
Dorothy if Principal had been ethical he would not have been suspended.
Maybe, if the selfish D'Amico had apologized to the Carbino family and to Dr. Sternberg a month ago, maybe the principal's blind faith supporters, like Dorothy would not look like a fools.
Dorothy, Mr. D'Amico's lawyer has admitted to the principal's unethical wrong doing and instructed him to apologize to the school superintendent.
Perhaps, Marc D'Amico also owes an apology to persons like Dorothy who could not imagine that a school principal would do these awful things.
